15 Alberta Waterfalls Worth a Weekend Getaway
Was happy to be there at the festival. But not extremely happy with the judges score decisions. One of the things not happy about is that , solo performances are different than a group performance, so judging should be different. Plus when a performer does 1/3 of the same dance as the preliminaries, should not make a top three(3rd) place winning, my opinion, not like others that had a NEW completely different dance, that showed, commenting to the process. Something completely NEW to show something they learned that is new, and not the same thing.

It’s coming to lot six. We just finished taste of Calgary now another one! I love seeing the lot used however the stages seem to be set up right below my living room. Please can you make sure your stage is as far away from apartments as you can. There are a lot of apartments in this immediate area. Please be kind to us and keep the music volume to a level we can live with. It doesn’t need to be extremely loud to be enjoyed.
PLEASE turn your music/loudspeakers down!! We can hear you clearly from 3 blocks away, it’s super annoying even w/ all the windows closed!!
Marc, it’s not all about you.
Regards
I was expecting the Korean Community to make this event as a means of sharing their culture with their own communities and those outside of their community – like the Turkish, Ukranian, Greek festivals…. I was wrong. This is an event for Koreans. The signs are in Korean, there’s no information booths, the announcements are in Korean, their website is in Korean. There is no inclusivity of outsiders. I didn’t see a schedule for dances/song/events…
The food was good though!
You are loud
